[Gumstix-users] getting around the expat gzip issue

[Charles M. <man...@ac...>]

Like many who changed to Ubunto 10.04, I stubbed my toe on the problem with 
the new gzip failing to handle the expat tarball on sourceforge.

I got around this problem as follows:
$sudo apt-get install gzrt
$gzrecover expat_2.0.1.tar.gz

then retarballed the output and put it in my own location.
You can access this with the recipe changes below or just recreate your own if 
you're not the trusting sort.

Changed recipes to point to new location and updated sums.
